passage 1
seven ways to find out what you really want in life
be good to yourself
you can’t pinpoint(准确指出) exactly what you want in life .you’re constantly sacrificing your time and dreams for other people. 36 ask yourself: if you weren’t tied down by your job, family, or anything else, then what would you be doing right now?
regret nothing
to be good to yourself is not selfish. it’s your life. it’s time for you to live it exactly the way you want to. if you constantly regret things you did or didn’t do in the past, then you won’t be able to move forward. 37
figure out what you need
sometimes it’s hard to figure out what you need. sit down and think about what you need most. the freedom to express yourself? love? financial security? something else? if it helps, you can make a list. also think about the kind of legacy(遗产) you want to leave behind.
38
you can fly only by pushing back against something you don’t want. figure out what upsets you, and be specific about it. don’t just say that you hate your office job. pinpoint exactly why you hate it. could it be your strict boss? your workload? your meaningless job title? or all of the above?
determine what makes you truly happy
there’s no life to waste if you’re happy with living it. think about what makes you happy. being around children? is it traveling? owning a successful business? financial freedom? 39
let people around you know what you’re trying to achieve
don’t keep your goals and desires to yourself. voice it all out! if you tell people what you’re trying to accomplish, they will most likely support you and give you new ideas. sometimes mother does know best!
stay positive
